I love the way Lincoln idolators say things like that with absolutely no argument to back it up. Lincoln is the state religion. No proof necessary. No disproof considered.
Since Communist or Progressive notions were invented AFTER Lincoln was murdered, it seems pretty obvious that Lincoln could not have been a Communist or a Progressive.
Unless you have that darned time machine in your pocket.
Marx’s notions of communism were derived from his poor understanding of a southern plantation economy. That would make Jeff Davis more the inspiration for Marx than Lincoln.
I love the way Lost Cause Liberals commit multiple logical fallacies in a single sentence. Brava!
